@@Nick66606 Between the news, volunteering at the local animal rescue and daily observations of humanity in action, I have more than enough tragedy and sadness to fill my day. I counterbalance this flood of misery with my dogs, my friends, my books and my drink. Subtracting another hour from those things I enjoy, to learn another tragedy I can’t fix, perpetrated by people I can’t educate, is self inflicted harm, and I am not masochistic, though… for those Taijin assholes I could easily see my self being “Hannibalistic.” Sibilo caratteristico with a nice chianti perhaps…

I would rather have people doing something somewhere that nothing anywhere... AND what exactly have you done to combat this cruelty that gives you the moral high ground to criticize the efforts of others? I know for a fact that the Dolphin Project have taken more action than I have, and I am appreciate for all they HAVE DONE rather than critical for what that have not done.

Fair play Charles for your work in The Cove - one of my favourite films of all time, but least favourite to watch for obvious reasons. Fair play for helping to highlight that! The Dolphin Project are reporting live this year. Ive done a video, about Twitter censoring them. I noticed no other social platforms are doing so. People need to pressure Twitter into changing this policy, especially at a time when they are reporting from the cove in Taiji right now. Hope some folks here can send a tweet at twitter!

Sounds like a worldwide problem being done to all kinds of animals

I think mankind has now know what its like being confined, from a 5 square meter room, to a 500 square meter house and backyard to a 5 acres farm. For days up to months. It is not pleasant. Then your townspeople died of coronavirus. Your neighbours. Your families and friends. Hopefully the human race learns from it and start treating nature better.

@Kkay Wettemup True. But in probably most cases, prisoners did something bad to get there. What have the dolphins done?

Nobody cares in the west, corporations just want money, doesn't matter how heinous the means are to get it. Unfortunately, there is a niche market for dolphin meat, and greedy people will try to fill it.

Supply and demand. Just like prostitution, drugs etc. What I don't get is predator priests. Who keep supplying them?

Well said!

The Japanese are protesting big time. They are very strong and do it well. There is no racism. We strongly support them in everything they are doing to stop this. We consider we are in this together there is no separateness. It is linked to the Global trade as gigi paris said, although Taiji does have its special buyers who are not members of JAZA. The Japanese are getting noticed and protesters are growing every day within Japan.

Japanese have such mindset nothing can change them. Even their Government is so damn stubborn. They refuse to heed to advice from other nations. Such a.holes. Dolphin meat is high in mercury & not advisable for human consumption.

Seaspiracy isn't actually so accurate, even if the message of the documentary is good. There are some fake news and inaccurate informations, it's a bit misleading. For example, the fact that japanese hunt dolphins in order to have more tunas doesn't make sense, because dolphins don't eat tuna, they eat almost only smaller fishes. And i won't trust so much neither that 1/12 relation. However, dolphin hunt still remains extremely cruel and totally pointless.

Ric O'Barry told a story on the cove how one time he came without a camera and a fisherman, looked at him picked up a baby dolphin and slit its throat. Apparently it was already dead but he only did it as a message to Ric. So sadly no, I don't think they would be just as happy with boat tours and what not. It's a nice thought though

I agree. Dolphins are way more mature then us.

@CheesyChicken4LiFe If they wanna eat Dolphins and all the other weird stuff they eat like shark fin, tiger balls etc, that's fine. Maybe we can start eating Japanese Whalers.

Chickens and cows are also dumb af. They have also been selectively evolved by us for hundreds of years to be food. Eating them has no major impact on the ecosystem. All of that is different with dolphins.

What makes unnecessary killing wrong/unethical? The fact that you're going against a sentient being's will to live & emotions. Intelligence, breeding or species don't matter. Otherwise it'd be okay if people killed dogs or if another species came along & treated humans the way non-vegans/speciesists treat other animals- & I don't think you'd agree with that no matter how much smarter that other species would be. I recommend checking out Earthling Ed's videos as he explains it all very well.

@@KanashiAtisuto we evolved to eat meat. Get lost vegan.

@@Doom_Squid_Son eh no, especially chickens It's proven that bird brains are more efficiently organized for intelligence If a chicken's brain was as big as a dolphin's they'd be far smarter than them or humans Intelligence doesn't matter

@@ivyme5783 no.

Before domesticating cows or pigs, all animals consider as animals. We selectively choose some species and breed domestically as our food. It's weird right ? If every animal have the right to live in nature freely. Why we captivate them and breed them forcefully ? Every slaughter house is bad. Nothing ethical or justification behind that. Don't try to justify killing is cool and right for domesticated animals but it's wrong to kill wild animals. Also we eat all kind of fish and seafood. We don't breed them in farms or domesticated as our food. So, killing all kind of fish must be wrong. We can't just select some species over others.

Looks like the police are themselves "criminals". Rightly said. What ever ones sows so shall they reap.

@@horiyamato5721 & not forgetting they are hit with earthquakes every few seconds. Bad people esp. those who are heartless.

I do hope and pray these same criminals are re-born as Dolphins and Whales and face similar deaths as these poor creatures are going through.

yes, all animals are special & deserve respect & preservation. criminal animal abuse is everywhere within the so-called industry.

It's called "speciesism", the precursor to human "racism".

I'd say it has to do with the concept of duty. Some people think, "The duty of this animal is to be our pet and the duty of this animal is to be eaten." In short, humans think we own the world so we dictate the position and duty of other species. If anyone goes against that order, we call them freaks.

While the ethics of eating meat in general certainly should be questioned, there are a number of ecological and ethical issues to dolphin farming that go beyond eating any animal for food. From the ecological standpoint, humans domesticated livestock since the dawn of humanity specifically for eating, and we ourselves evolved to eat them. That means that, as far as eating meat goes, there's minimum ecological impact associated with eating farm animals, and most domesticated livestock species will go extinct if humans had no incentive to farm them. On the other hand, Ocean ecosystems are difficult to observe and we have no idea how to calculate the grander ecological impact of killing several pods of dolphins a year. Not to mention dolphin pods have their own separate cultures passed down through the generations, so each one plays an irreplaceable role in their local ecosystem. From a economic standpoint, farmers put their own resources into their produces, which is regulated. These fisherman pay lipservice to respecting their prey (in an extremely racist way, by implying that noone else in the world respects the animals they eat), but they don't put any money back into maintaining the ocean, which is a shared resource that they don't own. This means everyone else pays for their poaching. From a cultural standpoint, conventional meat produce have nutritional value and are used in cultural practices throughout the world. These farmers are selling a toxic product with to an extremely niche market as a fake cultural practice in order to cover up international wildlife trafficking. They're killing dolphins to profit off people who think dolphins are cute. All of this together is definitely a greater crime against greater society than meat eating in itself.

Dolphin Whale meat has high levels of MERCURY which is not advisable for human consumption

I mean dolphins are self aware unlike any farm animals we consume at least to my knowledge. Eating a dolphin is akin to eating a chimpanzee basically

@@gelationousskin835 I would disagree. There have been scientific studies done that show that Pigs are smarter than dogs. Are you going to start consuming dog meat and keeping pigs as pets now?

@@jayaniee I think our current treatment of pigs is wrong but I'm still fine with eating and consuming both.

@@gelationousskin835 but wouldn’t that go against your original logic in regards to intelligence being the thing that decides whether or not an animal is consumable?

No, he isn't. He doesn't do anything for dolphins in Japan. Images have been out for years, before Ren came. Dolphin Project is all dead ends for their Japanese website "get involved" when you click the link to do more, it says "coming soon". They only fundraise off Taiji images. They have never closed any dolphin business in Japan. Instead, we found the government lies about food safety and we confront the government about their lies. Food safety is the correct approach to end dolphin meat. DP ignores this approach completely yet they have closed no Japanese dolphin shows. Zero. It is so disconnected it is pathetic.
